To capture that business Budweiser has launched an innovative morphing can that, courtesy of a specialized aperture end, changes form a conventional can to a open-ended drinking cup for toasting. The “Gan bei” drinking ritual is a centuries-old tradition in China. Brand owner Anheuser-Busch InBev honor the custom with this new packaging with a 200-diameter end developed by Crown Holdings Inc.
